Thanks to Chain Reaction Media and New Music Tipsheet and for the shout out for Marketing that Works features in the Newsletter. This is a bit of a blast from the past (2008) but you can’t deny hat 1,000 + fans lined up outside of Guitar Center and the 20K + contest entrants.
The Crash Kings are currently rocking their way across the country with Rooney making new fans and die hard believers along the way.
With Crash Kings opening, the show began on the rock-iest note of the evening. The Los Angeles-based band showcased their ability to make both ‘intentionally sloppy’ sound just as solid as ‘effortlessly polished.’”
Crash Kings exhibited an unusually high energy from each member’s trying to topple each other in how severely they could beat the shit out of their instruments. A battle truly worth witnessing.”
The Los Angeles based band played an impressive 10-song set that proved that they are a band to watch. Lead singer Tony Beliveau has an amazing falsetto voice that sounds like a cross between Robert Plant and Adam Lambert. Describing their sound is difficult, but I’ll try: if you took the melodies from the All-American Rejects and set them to Green Day’s heavy hooks and threw in some Led Zeppelin, you’d get what I mean.
